Combination of variable Oil Brake and Compressor loaded Expanders available with five wheel sizes with power capacity up to 2,000kW. Typical Application Industrial Gas Industry (Air Separation Units) to provide refrigeration when a process cryogenic booster compres sor is required with adjustable cold power provided by the oil brake. Usual Gases Handled Air, Nitrogen, or waste gas from air with high oxygen content possibility.

Usual Gases Handled Air, Nitrogen, or waste gas from air with high oxygen content possibility. Cryostar has a unique experience in the design of these TFC, with the first unit built in 1991 and more than 50 TFC in operation sold to the major gas companies. Turbo expander with cryogenic compressor and variable oil brake mounted on a common shaft. The “cartridge” design of the rotor assembly allows access to the rotating element without re moving the expander casing and its cold box extension. For easy maintenance, a spare “plug-in unit” (expander without casings) allows customer to change all internal parts within a minimum of time and with maximum reliability. Diffuser design allows low radial loads at all operating flows. Variable oil brake is used to adjust the cold production A modular lube oil system is feeding the oil brake and bearings. The standard cost effective expander package can be customized to meet the most stringent cus tomer specifications like API614
